The Colne Valley Tree Society: Friend army

Jess smiling in the sunshine, and Hap!

Back to Scammonden to plant a further 135 hazel and 60 downy birch amongst previously planted but diseased ash trees.

We were: myself, Philip, Stephen, Hap, Dave, Peter T., Jess, and Richard.

2024/25 Season

We are a registered charity and group of volunteers, who plant native species trees in and around the Colne Valley. Occasionally there will be remarks on facebook that suggest we are a threat to all that lovely moorland. We are flattered that some people think a dozen volunteers could cover the thousands of hectares of moorland with trees. In fact, we plant responsibly, and always with the permission and support of landowners. The Pennines are one of the most heavily regulated areas in the UK for tree planting, its a wonder we get anything done.
